1. Before acting on any use permit application, the planning commission shall hold a public hearing conducted according to its procedure. Notice of the time, date, place, and purpose of the hearing shall be given in compliance with Chapter 17.122 (Public Notices and Hearings).

2. Decisions of the planning commission shall be rendered in writing within ten days of the final hearing at which action is taken. The decision shall state the conditions of approval, if any, or the reasons for denial. The planning commission’s decision shall be final unless appealed.

3. When a conditional use permit is before the planning commission, the planning commission may act to impose additional or relax any property development standards capable of being so altered under relevant sections of these regulations. The intent of this provision is to enable the planning commission to deal with various aspects of project design in a comprehensive way, without postponement of action on a project for separate hearings. Conditional use permit findings and procedures shall apply as provided in relevant sections of these regulations. (Ord. 1650 § 3 (Exh. B), 2018)
